For sale is my '82 Pontiac Firebird. I purchased this car as a solid body only and pulled it out of a barn. The body is EXTREMELY solid as you can see in the pictures. This was originally a V6 car but I have built it over the last 8 years into a pro-touring style car. I have well over 10 grand in this car in parts. There is over 3 grand just in the fuel injection and transmission. Reserve basically covers only the parts that would be very easy to part out and re-sell.
Engine - '89 1 piece rear main seal truck block 350 bored .040" over. Stock crank, rods, ARP bolts, KB Hyperuetectic pistons. 9.0:1 compression. Balanced assembly. LT4 HOT cam, Edelbrock Perf. RPM cylinder heads, Edelbrock Pro-Flo EFI, much more. Has between 400-450 HP. Car is FAST!
Transmission - T56 6-speed out of a 95 Camaro, Hurst Billet-Plus shifter, Centerforce dual-friction clutch
Rearend - '87 Firebird GTA 9-bolt borg-warner with posi and disc brakes, Spohn performance adjustable torque arm and trans mount with driveshaft loop
Suspension - KYB AGX adjustable shocks and struts, wonder bar, heavy duty ADCO sway bar,Summit lowering springs, all poly bushings, Lakewood lower control arms, Edelbrock adjustable panhard bar, much more.
Brakes - All 4 rotors drilled and slotted. Front SSBC brake caliper upgrade. Rear stock calipers. SS brake lines, stainless braided hoses.
Body - Paint is faded, but I liked it that way. Kind of a sleeper look. The missing grill disentigrated in my hands, easy to find to replace. The other is custom with Dodge Ram grill insert. I still have the parts to finish the Drivers side in the same fashon should you want it. There is small rust buble around parking light. Tried my best to show it in the picture.
Interior - Has the rare PMD seats with the hole in headrest that you need for any KITT replica car. Covers are descent but could be re-covered for show car look. Carpet is new, headliner, sail panels, and sun visors are new. Entire interior has been sprayed with lizard skin for sound absorbtion. No radio, was next on my list. It is wired to the back for an amplifier install.
There is a ton more to talk about on this car. It was my baby for 8 years, and I have driven it for 500 miles. I have to get rid of it becuase I do not have enough room to complete my '69 Camaro project. Hard to let this car go but has to be done. If you have any questions or want additional pictures feel free to contact me. The car is available for test drives if you are in the area. This is a great car and I take CASH or Money Orders ONLY. Shipping is at buyers expense and is up to buyer to coordinate. I am available to help your shipping contractor pick up and load the car.
Thanks for looking and good luck!

6 car mashups that God never intended
Sat, May 17 2014In the 2000s, the musical mashup genre saw a peak of popularity with releases like The Grey Album from Danger Mouse that mixed The Beatles and Jay-Z. UK artist James Pursey from Carwow decided to take the same concept of shoehorning two disparate things together but applied the concept to cars. Your opinion on the results will vary with your sense of humor. These creations are either some funny pieces of abstract art or absolute monstrosities that prove good design should be left alone. Likely the best of the bunch is the Lambotomic (pictured above), which combines a Lamborghini Miura and an Ariel Atom. Granted, the Ariel is little more than a skeleton to begin with, and the outcome looks like a slightly stretched Atom with the new nose and tail from one of the most beautiful vehicles ever. This could actually work. Though, not all of the mashups are quite so pleasant. The Porschiac WW RS (pictured right) is absolutely disgusting. It combines a Pontiac Aztek, which isn't a beauty queen to start with, and a Porsche 911 GT3 RS. Obviously, the 911 is an iconic shape in autonobolia, but that can't save it from the horror of the Aztek. Pursey fits the its nose, wheel, wing, roll cage and stripes onto the Pontiac. The outcome: A design that will show up in your nightmares. Check out the gallery for the rest of the mashups, including the Humi (a Humvee and a Mini), Aston Smartin (Aston Martin and Smart), Rangerini (Range Rover and Lamborghini Aventador) and the Mazdafenda (Mazda MX-5 Miata and Land Rover Defender). They might not all be beautiful (or even pretty), but it's fun to imagine these oddball creations actually driving down the road.

GM reintroduces Tripower name in the worst way possible
Wed, Aug 1 2018The story of General Motors' use of the Tripower moniker begins way back in 1957, when Semon E. "Bunkie" Knudsen, then General Manager of GM's Pontiac division, directed his engineers to inject more performance into his brand's line of V8-powered automobiles. Fuel injection was an option, but hot rodders flocked instead to Tri-Power (marketed way back when with a hyphen), which grafted a trio of two-barrel Rochester carburetors onto a single intake manifold. A legend was born. And that legend was born of performance. At idle and when full power wasn't required, Pontiac's Tri-Power system used just the middle carburetor, which helped make the setup easier to tune. Depending on the year and model, either a vacuum system or a mechanical linkage opened up the two outer carbs, thereby switching from two barrels to six, and allowing the engine to take in more fuel and air. And it was an easy marketing win – six barrels is better than four barrels, right? Because performance! So, when news filtered in that GM has resurrected the Tripower name, those of us who grew up attending classic car shows and wrenching on old Pontiacs did a double-take. And then we all collectively sighed. Turns out that today's Tripower refers to a trio of fuel-saving measures that include cylinder deactivation, active thermal management, and intake valve lift control, according to Automotive News. And, at least for now, it applies to GM's line of fullsize trucks powered by a 2.7-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine. We're all for saving fuel whenever possible. And we have zero say in how any automaker chooses to market its products and technologies. But, we'll offer our two cents anyway: Relaunching a storied name from the past is fine. Relaunching a storied name from the past while completely overlooking the reasons the name got famous in the first place is only going to irritate the people who remember the name in the first place. Couldn't they just call this new technology package something else?

Junkyard Gem: 1964 Pontiac Catalina Custom Ventura
Mon, May 22 2023Like Impala, Skylark, Malibu and Silverado (among many others), the Ventura name began its career as the designation for a trim level or option package used on another GM model, then became a model name in its own right. Initially a designation for a snazzed-up Pontiac Catalina two- or four-door hardtop, the Ventura name moved over to a Pontiac-ized version of the Chevy Nova for 1971. Today's Junkyard Gem, found in a Northern California car graveyard, proudly bears both Catalina and Ventura badging. Actually, the Catalina name itself started out as a trim level for the Chieftain and Star Chief models of the 1950s, just to confuse everybody. By the time this car was built, the Catalina was the cheapest of four Pontiac models built on the same full-size B-Body platform as the big Chevrolets and Olds 88s of the time (the Star Chief, Bonneville and Grand Prix ranked above it on the 1964 Pontiac Prestige-O-Meter). The 1964 Catalina four-door hardtop with the Custom Ventura package offered a lot of swank per dollar, with a price starting at $3,063. That's about $29,821 when converted to inflated 2023 dollars. The main benefit of the Custom Ventura package was an interior done up entirely in Morrokide upholstery. Morrokide was the name GM applied to Naugahyde fake leather when used in Pontiac vehicles; when used in Buicks, it was known as Cordaveen, while Oldsmobile Naugahyde was called Morocceen. Naugahyde took its name from the town of Naugatuck, Connecticut, where it was invented. This car's Morrokide is in rough shape. In fact, everything about this car is decayed and probably infectious. You know to be careful when a junkyard car has warnings about rat feces inked on the glass. That said, I couldn't resist examining the 8-track tapes that littered the interior. Here's Hotel California, the 1976 hit album by the Eagles. Supertramp's Paris, a live album recorded from the 1979 Breakfast in America tour, is here as well. Here's The Best of Carly Simon, from 1975. The tapes were played on this Sparkomatic player, which probably lived in the glovebox or under the seat. The factory radio was AM-only, and includes the frequency markings for the atomic-attack CONELRAD emergency frequencies. 1964 was the last year for mandatory CONELRAD radios in the United States.
